Somewhere on the left side? Should be some sort of handle or button to push/pull. If I remember right, it's in the trunk. Somewhere on the left side?

There is a switch most likey in the trunk(one side panel or the other that will trip in an accident to shut off the fuel. If you didn't hit a LARGE bump most likely that is not the problem. You can check it though by looking in the trunk, you wii see a yellow and black tag that says fuel shutoff switch or similar. Reach a finger in the hole there and press down on the RED button on top of the switch. If it clicks start the car up and drive away. If it doesn't click then it wasn't tripped and you need to look elsewhere. There is no "shut off valve".
